OP Achievements Balancing
For over 5 years now Opium Pulses have allowed members to collect loyalty points in various ways, whether that be via cashback in the store, completing quests or by earning on-site achievements by completing certain tasks and milestones.After so many years and hundreds of thousands of registered users, we are left with a lot of data on how our members interact with the website and how they ultimately earn and spend their points.One thing we have noticed is that our most popular achievements are the less interactive ones (what we call our 'Idle Achievements'), such as years of membership or entering/winning
Air Missions: HIND Review
Few words about the gameAir Missions: HIND is an amazing combat flight simulator, where you're being deployed into various battlefields to accomplish the commanded missions. I may have no experience with this kind of games as I played only one combat simulator before, but I easily recognize a good game when I play one and this is definitely one of those.AdvantagesGraphics are not breathtaking, but still very nicely done, and the models are pretty realisticBig variety of weapons to customize your helicopterDiversity of missions and surrounding makes it very interesting to play and quite hard to get bored withSounds are realistic
Not for Broadcast Review
FMV has fell out of popularity in an era with more detailed and quality 3D models, and is only making a resurgence recently with the indie community. It's a medium that can better portray characters and create a connection between the player and the story, but the problem lies with player engagement because the gameplay relies on what scenes are recorded which limits player agency. One such FMV game is being developed by NotGames, it's called Not For BroadcastThe story starts as the player character (Alex) is deceived into taking his friends job as he moves out of the country, only

No Time To Explain Review
Few words about the gameNo Time To Explain is an amazingly fun platformer game, where you pass levels using the laser cannon or few other tools, fight alien crabs or mecha-pterodactyls or dance off a cake. After this kind of description of a game, I really have no clue what you're waiting for, there's no time to explain, it's just perfect!Advantages- Totally random and stupid humour - I love every bit of it- Ton of fun, non-repetitive levels to pass through- Collectives are everywhere, but it's challenging to get some of them- Music and voice acting are awesome- Local co-op- Game
Tick Tock Isle Review
Few words about the gameTick Tock Isle is a short 2D puzzle adventure game made by an indie dev team, Squiddershins, that specializes in weirdly fun, small games, and they're definitely are keeping their formula in this one. You're taking over the role of a young guy named Strike and your goal is to basically repair both a clock in an abandoned clock tower and a strange, dysfunctional family. But there's a twist - you need to travel back in time to be able to do that.AdvantagesSimple controls, you're only going to use arrows and occasionally, enter to access inventory /
Dread Nautical Review
It's Lovecraftian. No, apparently it doesn't mean Minecraft porn.Dread Nautical by Zen Studios on many aspects reminds me of Dark Quest 2 (it's already been almost three years now since I reviewed that one!). It's tactical, it's turn-based, you get one character in the beginning and gather a bigger team later on. Finally, both games strive for scariness in their own unique ways whilst they also try to be in unique ways cartoony and end up doing both these things poorly.Dread Nautical is too ugly to be a children's game and not detailed enough to be a proper horror. Now I
